Last time my male P. regalis molted was on 9/19. He went from 2.25" to 3". He has been in premolt webbed in for the last two weeks. I noticed him cradled on a web on his back a few hours ago and got to watch him wiggle out of his molt!!! It will be a few days before I remove the old molt, and a week before I bother him or attempt to feed, but does any one want to take guesses on how big he is now? I'm hoping for 4". I took pictures, I'll post them in my photo gallery.

Sweet! I got 3 of the 1" P.regalis slings from RobC a couple weeks ago, can't wait for them to molt.

i thought about getting some from him, he lives close by, about 2 hr drive. So shipping would be quick.

actually I still am, I just don't have any more enclosures right now.

he's spread out pretty decently right now, and measuring in at roughly 4 1/8"!!! That's a 1 1/8" growth, holy moly.
